Ability to customize the stats/apps on Inspire series

There are several functions that I do not need or want and there is currently no way to turn them off. I would normally just ignore them but my FitBit has this annoying habit of just randomly switching to something it thinks I want, when I have done nothing. It's as bad as driving a car and when you stop at a light, the car decides you want to park so it opens the door for you. I want to control my screen, what it shows, and when it shows it. Currently I can do none of this.

This seems like a basic and much asked for feature, please make this happen Fitbit!

I use the stopwatch feature all the time and it used to be so easy on my old Fitbit Charge HR... just hold down the side button and the timer starts.
Now with my new Inspire HR, I need to:
1. Push the side button.
2. Swipe up 4 times
3. Tap 2 times.

I've had the Alta HR up until last week (it broke), and then I got the Inspire 2. I like many aspects of it so far, but I there is some potential for change - that can be fixed with a software update. There are multiple apps that I don't use or want on my Inspire 2 such as weight, water, etc. On Alta HR I was able to hide these but not on this one.

Ability to customize what you see on your watch screen. ... active time, resting heart rate, sleep, score, menstrual data, water, weight, and activity. that's all on the app. the second screen has the date and time again along with the battery percentage too. it's redundant and to be able to change the order of what you see on your watch screen.

I have invested far so much time on app and in settings and online trying to figure out how to customize what features or items will show up on the actual Fitbit screen. There are too many display screens to scroll through and no way to delete ones of no interest. Paid same price $100 for Alta HR 3 years ago but you customize that? Going backwards!

I have an Inspire HR. My main goal is my active minutes, yet I have to scroll past several screens to reach this info. Over 1000 subscribers/owners have requested the option to re-order the screens but Fitbit/Google have decided to ignore that! I feel that this is due to market share, but I feel that Amazon’s Halo will change this attitude.

Allow the information stats on the Inspire 2 to be rearranged to user preferences. When you scroll down to look at your stats, they do not appear in the order I prefer. We should be able to prioritize the order of that information so that it is easier to access - e.g.; steps, distance, heart rate, resting heart rate, etc.

Can you please allow for users to disable icons that they do not use/need/want (for instance, the menstruation app, the relax app etc.) and rearrange the ones that they do (on the actual device) use that best suits their needs.

Let us remove or reorder the apps in Fitbit Inspire 2. There are many I won’t plan on using. I don’t want to scroll through the relax app every time I want to set a timer really quickly. Some of those features loose their convenience if they are buried behind other apps. I expected more from such a “high tech” device. Please make an update.

I have seen hundreds of requests over at least 2 yrs to allow reordering or deletion of apps on the Inspire series. Thousands of reasons have been presented, and although this is a feature that had been allowed on previous models (so we know it’s not technologically impossible) it has thus far not been planned for this series.

It would be very much appreciated if we could remove the calorie counter on the app and watch. Have a switch that makes the calorie counter disappear so you don't know how much you burned.

Hi @Alexandrine_AThank you for sharing your Feature Suggestion with the Fitbit Community. Before anything else, let us explain that you can remove and reorder any tiles from the Fitbit app, including calories. To do this, please follow the instructions described in this help article.

 

Because you'd also like to customize the stats on your Fitbit device, please let us know which model you have as this will allow us to understand this idea better. We look forward to your response.
